The study is intended to support Parties in achieving the integrated implementation of the Cartagena Protocol. Its target audience includes national stakeholders involved in the development and implementation of biosafety-related legislation, as well as those engaged in broader cross-sectoral and sectoral policy-making processes that intersect with biosafety concerns.
Through a detailed analysis of international and national legal instruments, policies, and practical examples, the study offers a comprehensive overview of biosafety obligations. It further explores practical approaches for integrating biosafety measures into national cross-sectoral and sectoral legislation, policies, and institutional frameworks of Parties to the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety, the Nagoya–Kuala Lumpur Supplementary Protocol on Liability and Redress, and the Convention on Biological Diversity(CBD).
This publication was prepared by the CBD Secretariat in collaboration with FAO and the UNEP Montevideo Programme V, as part of the CBD Biosafety Technical Series.
